I assume most downvoters (not having heard of the Navajo event) thought you were making an inappropriate joke referencing the Stephen King novel of the same name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Walk

Also out of context it sort of sounds like a denial of the suffering and conditions - even if that is the name thet used.

In my experience there was no denial about the travesties but the Trail of Tears and maybe the Black Hills got name checked as events perhaps because of the precedent and disregard for even the Constitution and the Supreme Court in the first and the egregious "kick them off of their own reserved lands for a short term gold rush".

Perhaps folks might like to do a search before making such damning judgements about other HN users.

How someone would jump from a Native American history to Stephen King is beyond me. Assuming an inappropriate joke is also a mystery.
